[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] Reference Figure 1-5 An embodiment of this utility model includes a base plate 1, a machine tool body 2 fixedly mounted on the top of the base plate 1, a discharge pipe 3 connected to the front side of the machine tool body 2, a collection bin 4 provided on the top of the base plate 1, an annular groove 5 opened on the top of the base plate 1, a feeding assembly 6 for feeding flanges on the top of the base plate 1, and a conveying assembly 7 for conveying the processed flanges on the front side of the top of the base plate 1. First, the flange to be processed is placed on the base plate 1, and then the flange can be pushed into the machine tool body 2 for processing through the feeding assembly 6. When the flange is processed, it will be discharged from the discharge pipe 3 and the discharged flange will enter the collection bin 4. At this time, the collection bin 4 can be pushed to the processing worker through the conveying assembly 7 for the next processing.

[0031] Reference Figure 1-5The loading assembly 6 includes a placement plate 61. A screw 62 is rotatably mounted on the top of the base plate 1. The top of the screw 62 extends through to the top of the placement plate 61 and is threaded onto the placement plate 61. A motor 63 is fixedly mounted on the left side of the machine tool body 2. A first bevel gear 64 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the motor 63. A second bevel gear 65 is fixedly mounted on the top of the screw 62. The first bevel gear 64 and the second bevel gear 65 mesh. Through the mutual cooperation of the placement plate 61, the screw 62, the motor 63, the first bevel gear 64, and the second bevel gear 65, the flange to be processed is first placed on the placement plate 61, and then the motor is started. When the machine 63 is in operation, it can drive the first bevel gear 64 to rotate. The rotation of the first bevel gear 64 drives the second bevel gear 65 to rotate. The rotation of the second bevel gear 65 drives the screw 62 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 62 drives the placement plate 61 to move upward. When the placement plate 61 moves to the appropriate position, the flange can be pushed into the machine tool body 2. A limit rod 66 is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate 1. The top of the limit rod 66 extends through to the top of the placement plate 61 and is slidably installed with the placement plate 61. A limit block 67 is fixedly installed on the top of the limit rod 66. The rear side of the limit block 67 is fixedly installed with the machine tool body 2. Through the limit rod 66 The cooperation between the 6 and the limiting block 67 improves the stability of the placement plate 61 during movement, preventing the placement plate 61 from rotating due to the influence of the screw 62, which would prevent the placement plate 61 from effectively lifting and lowering. The top of the placement plate 61 has a placement groove 8, inside which a placement cart 9 is installed. The bottom of the placement cart 9 contacts the bottom of the inner wall of the placement groove 8. Through the cooperation of the placement groove 8 and the placement cart 9, the flange can be placed into the placement cart 9. Then, when the placement plate 61 moves to the appropriate position, the placement cart 9 can be pushed into the machine tool body 2, thereby achieving flange loading. The advantages of this system are that a rotary cylinder 68 is fixedly installed on the top of the machine tool body 2, and a push rod 69 is fixedly installed at the output end of the rotary cylinder 68. Push plates 610 are fixedly installed on both the front and rear sides of the push rod 69. Through the cooperation of the rotary cylinder 68, the push rod 69 and the push plate 610, when the placement plate 61 moves to a suitable distance, the rotary cylinder 68 can be activated. The rotary cylinder 68 will drive the push rod 69 to rotate, and the rotation of the push rod 69 will drive the push plate 610 to rotate. The rotation of the push plate 610 can push the placement cart 9 into the machine tool body 2, thereby achieving the advantage of automatic flange feeding.

[0032] Reference Figure 1-5The conveying assembly 7 includes a rotating rod 71, a rotating plate 72 fixedly mounted on the top of the rotating rod 71, a collection bin 4 located inside the rotating plate 72, and a stabilizing block 73 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the collection bin 4. The stabilizing block 73 and the annular groove 5 are slidably installed. Through the cooperation of the rotating rod 71, the rotating plate 72, and the stabilizing block 73, rotating the rotating rod 71 can drive the rotating plate 72 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating plate 72 drives the stabilizing block 73 and the collection bin 4 to move, thereby moving the collection bin 4 to the worker's hand for the next processing step. A drive gear 74 is fixedly mounted on the surface of the moving rod 71, and an electric push rod 75 is fixedly mounted on the top of the base plate 1. A toothed plate 76 is fixedly mounted on the telescopic end of the electric push rod 75. The toothed plate 76 meshes with the drive gear 74. Through the mutual cooperation of the drive gear 74, the electric push rod 75 and the toothed plate 76, the electric push rod 75 can be activated to drive the toothed plate 76 to move. The movement of the toothed plate 76 drives the drive gear 74 to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear 74 drives the rotating rod 71 and the rotating plate 72 to rotate, thereby moving the collection chamber 4 to the required position.

[0033] Working principle: First, the flange to be processed is placed inside the placement cart 9. Then, the motor 63 is started to drive the first bevel gear 64 to rotate. The rotation of the first bevel gear 64 drives the second bevel gear 65 to rotate. The rotation of the second bevel gear 65 drives the screw 62 to rotate. The rotation of the screw 62 drives the placement plate 61 to move to the top. When the placement plate 61 moves to the appropriate position, the rotary cylinder 68 is started. The rotary cylinder 68 drives the push rod 69 to rotate. The rotation of the push rod 69 drives the push plate 610 to rotate. The rotation of the push plate 610 pushes the placement cart 9 into the processing machine body 2, thus achieving the advantage of automatic flange feeding. After the flange is processed, the flange will enter the collection bin 4. Then, the electric push rod 75 is started. The extension end of the electric push rod 75 drives the toothed plate 76 to move. The movement of the toothed plate 76 drives the drive gear 74 to rotate. The rotation of the drive gear 74 drives the rotating rod 71 and the rotating plate 72 to rotate, thus moving the collection bin 4 into the hands of the operator for the next processing step.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
